Great to hear from you @sinte!! I miss working with your whole team. Hope to see you in Addis some day.
It’s good to hear this progress. I believe @Mekom might be interested in partnering on this issue, as their project in Cambodia also (I believe) requires a non-gregorian calendar. Actually I think they were planning to use the Thai calendar provided by the jQuery library you originally were using.
I have a few questions:
- @sinte are you no longer using the jQuery Library anymore? Is that replaced by integrating the react-sprectum Datepicker?
- @dennis or @vasharma05 or @ibacher: Looking at this code, do you think we could/should pull this into the O3 RefApp? (Of course we’d set the default to Eng etc) https://github.com/CDC-HIS/openmrs-esm-patient-management/commit/76cda8fe6d43f93820715db951cb43267c63bf1d
And some clarifications: So @sinte just to make sure I understand you correctly:
-
Goal #1: You want to leverage the i18n’d datepicker in forms, not just in the registration page, correct? I thought this work was already done by @amanryder? As shown here: https://talk.openmrs.org/t/o3-supporting-non-western-calendars-ethiopia-and-beyond/36566/3 Is this work no longer being used?
-
Goal #2: You also want a single place to set date configuration for the entire EMR, correct?
-
Goal #3: You then want anywhere that a date shows up in any widgets to be converted, e.g. like dates shown here, correct?
- Does this also include Dates of Birth?
